The Rolling Stones Postpone North American Tour

The Rolling Stones have postponed the band's upcoming “No Filter” North American stadium dates due to the global spread of Coronavirus. Fans are urged to hold on to their tickets pending further news regarding rescheduled shows. So far, no makeup dates have been announced.

The Stones issued a statement, which reads:

We’re hugely disappointed to have to postpone the tour. We are sorry to all the fans who were looking forward to it as much as we were, but the health and safety of everyone has to take priority. We will all get through this together — and we’ll see you very soon.

Since 1972, the Rolling Stones have been asked if its then-current road trek would prove to be “the last time.” Drummer Charlie Watts was asked what it would take for the Stones to finally pack it in: “Well, I think if Mick and Keith said that, I think we would. If any of the others said it, no. I think they could get another drummer, I think they could get another guitar player, and they would certainly, if Daryl (Jones) didn’t want to do it anymore — we’d have a nightmare of a time finding another bass player. But, no, I think Mick and Keith would or could carry on, but I think if Mick said 'I’m retiring' — I don’t know how we’d do a show with him (laughter) and without Keith.”
